Ministry Of Foreign Affairs (Romania)
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Romania (Romanian: Ministerul Afacerilor Externe) is one of the fifteen ministries of the Government of Romania.
The current Foreign Minister was Teodor Baconschi who was dismissed on 23 January 2012 after inappropriate commentary regarding the 2012 Romanian protests in which he insulted the people in the streets. The next day Cristian Diaconescu, from a non-elected party that formed in the Parliament after the defection of several members of other parties, was named by the Romanian president as Minister of the Foreign Affairs.

Heard only in the trances of the blast,
Or if the secret ministry of frost
Shall hang them up in silent icicles,
Quietly shining to the quiet Moon.”

Save in the office and affairs of love.”
